1 week from today its wheels up to Atlanta, then on to Joburg to begin my hunt with Pieter at Paw Print Safaris!! In 9 days time, we will have finished our first day in the bush, I think sleep will be hard to come by this week. I'll be in SA for 10 1/2 days, 7 planned hunting days and 3 days of sightseeing. Going after 5-7 plains game species, Nyala, Waterbuck, warthog, bushbuck, blesbok, zebra, and maybe 1 or 2 more we'll see. Also going after buffalo! This will be my first dangerous game hunt and really looking forward to it! Pieter has been doing some scouting recently and sent me a few pics of some buff in the area. I'll try to post a few updates on this thread while in SA, and then post a full hunt report once back to the US.

You will have a great time, reedy! Make sure and tell us all about your experience, especially the buffalo hunt. That is one of the most exciting things I have ever experienced.
 
Yes sir @reedy0312..... I got 10 or 11 days myself before I am in RSA with Jacques Spamer again w/ @AAA Africa Serapa Safaris. Looking very forward. Good luck, looking forward to report.
 
Thanks Silverado!
 
Your time is almost here now reedy. I know you will have a blast tracking down a nice buff with pieter. Looking forward to hearing all about your trip. Good luck

I am looking forward to july 26th through aug 11th when I am there hunting again with pieter and Pawprint safaris.
 
Thanks Bill!
 
Aim for the shoulder.........shoot!
 
You bet Charlie, we are going after buff on day 1 !!!
 
Man I want to go buff hunting again. Savor the moments doing it my friend. When that beast looks at you he sees right through you and if he can come for you he will. Make sure Pieter has that 500 loaded. Shoot and don't wait to be told to reload.
 
It's showtime Reedy! Enjoy. Post some pics if you can. Save that small spike Nyala for Bill :-)
 
Lee, I'll go ahead and take the big Nyala so Bill wont loose any more sleep over it ;)
 
5 Days!! Sleep was tough to come by last night
 
Sleep is one thing, bet your not getting anything done at work also.
 
Oh yeah @ChrisPy ,

Today, and next Monday and Tuesday I basically will be checked out! ;)
 
Anticipation is half the experience. Keep your powder dry & good hunting.
 
Warm barrels Reedy. The day you fly home or thereabouts, I'll be flying in.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
